# Bria Fibo

Structured-prompt image generation and editing model available through Bria APIs and licensed deployments.

Canonical profile: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/

Scope: Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Published overall: 4.5; 6/6 dimensions rated.

Round the equal-weight mean of available numerical ratings to one decimal; require at least four of six for an overall score. BDS status stays outside the mean; for eligible profiles, a boycott target caps the final score at 2/10 and a pressure target subtracts one point (minimum 1). Not listed and not checked do not adjust the score.

## Energy practices

Finding: 2/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#energy

Bria documents cloud and customer-hosted routes, but no Fibo request energy or facility electricity figures.

Reason: 1 + 1 reporting + 0 electricity + 0 controls = 2/10. This grades documented practices and transparency.

Argument: The operational boundary depends on whether a customer calls Bria’s API or runs a licensed model package on its own infrastructure. No route-level energy report or electricity mix is supplied; the local route is not assumed to use less energy.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (dimension): Fibo 2 via Bria Build API or separately licensed customer deployment; product route determines host.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: GPU, region, facility electricity, and workload energy are not reported per Fibo generation.

## Training data

Finding: 5/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#training-rights

Bria reports commercial agreements with 30+ training-data partners and attribution-based revenue share, but does not publish the named corpus or a creator-level training remedy in the reviewed sources.

Reason: 1 + 2 source transparency + 2 permission + 0 creator controls = 5/10, with the permission cap applied.

Argument: Bria says each training asset has an identifier linked to source, creator and license terms, and its attribution system matches outputs to licensed data for partner revenue share. The public materials do not expose the corpus inventory or agreement terms for inspection, and compensation after use is not evidence of individual permission before use or an opt-out/removal route.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: Publicly inspectable source inventory, license terms per source, creator permission/removal process, and independent validation remain unavailable in the reviewed sources.

## Your data & privacy

Finding: 6/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#privacy

Bria offers hosted API generation and separately licensed self-hosting; route choice changes where uploaded images and prompts are processed.

Reason: 6/10 reflects a published local deployment route and a hosted API route, with endpoint-specific retention and deployment coverage still unclear.

Argument: The Bria API uses an account token and returns generated asset URLs; the self-hosted license runs selected model packages on customer GPUs. Fibo Lite is described as Docker-ready for local deployment, so the cloud route and local route have different data boundaries.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: The reviewed sources do not specify uniform retention across all Fibo endpoints or quantify whether every Fibo 2 feature is available in the self-hosted Lite build.

## Openness

Finding: 6/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#openness

Fibo is downloadable through Bria under model-specific licensing; self-hosted commercial use requires a license.

Reason: 6/10 reflects downloadable weights and self-hosting documentation, offset by model-specific commercial licensing rather than an unrestricted open license.

Argument: Bria links a model download and documents self-hosted model installation, but licenses each model separately and says Fibo weights on Hugging Face are source-available for non-commercial use unless separately licensed. The permissive open-source claim does not extend to all commercial deployments.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: Exact terms vary by weight package, self-host license, deployment scale and API usage.

## Worker protections

Finding: 1/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#labour

Fibo developer documentation and model pages identify licensed visual-model deployment and output provenance, but do not disclose employee or contractor workforce measures.

Reason: 1 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 1/10. Documented worker protections; missing disclosure is an evidence gap.

Argument: The reviewed Bria product, safety and self-host documentation addresses model licensing, deployment, moderation and attribution. It contains no pay, workplace-condition, worker-voice or contractor-protection reporting, so the labour score records a disclosure gap rather than an allegation.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: Employee, contractor, annotation and moderation workforce conditions for Bria remain unestablished in these public sources.

## Military ties

Finding: 7/10

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#military-contracts

No military relationship or product-specific military safeguards are established in the reviewed Bria sources.

Reason: 7 base + 0 safeguard adjustment = 7/10 (0 of 9 safeguard points; every 3 adds 1). No military relationship was established in the cited sources. This ranks above known defense ties without claiming a verified clean record.

Argument: The official sources reviewed for Bria Fibo describe its creative route, model access and user terms but do not establish defense work, a military customer, or binding operational restrictions. This product-level disclosure gap does not resolve unreviewed corporate or downstream relationships.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: Company-wide defense customers and downstream uses of Bria Fibo were not exhaustively established.

## BDS targets

Finding: Not listed

Assessment: https://ethicalstack.ai/products/bria-fibo/#israel-palestine

The company is not named in the two reviewed official BNC campaign sources.

Reason: Campaign category, excluded from numerical scoring.

Argument: This entry records only whether the named company appears in the BNC consumer guide or No Tech campaign. Not listed is a limited source check, not a finding of endorsement, compliance or absence of supplier and investment relationships.

Type: argument; confidence: medium

Scope (profile): Fibo 2 image-generation model and Bria Build/API routes; on-prem/local deployment applies only to the separately documented Fibo Lite or licensed self-hosted product, not automatically to Bria Cloud.

Research reviewed: not recorded; evidence date: not recorded

Unknowns: The check does not cover every campaign, subsidiary, investor, supplier, local listing or future target change.

## Reading the evidence

- Assessments are provisional editorial judgments. Cite the profile and the underlying sources, and retain confidence, scope and unknowns.

- Unknown, not-applicable and model-dependent are different states. Missing evidence does not establish good or bad conduct.

- Company-level evidence does not establish use of a particular product or model. Account plan, model, host and route can change an assessment.

- Energy scores describe documented practices and transparency, not measured request emissions. Zero component points can mean an evidence gap.

- Published overall scores require at least four of six numerical dimensions. Preserve coverage and BDS adjustments; BDS itself is categorical.

- No named BDS target found is limited to the reviewed campaign sources and is not approval. Personalized priorities do not change the published overall score.

- Review and source-check dates describe the research, not this deployment. Fetch current primary sources when the decision requires current verification.
